ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY ON NATURE-SOCIETY RELATIONS IN & OF INTERNATIONAL BORDERS

Dear RRN Members,

I hope this message finds you well. We have been working on an annotated bibliography on «Nature-Society Relations in and of International Borders» witha longer-term goal of producing a formal, peer-reviewed literature review on the subject. This project is part of a larger RRN Cluster on Environmental Displacement and has been generously funded by the RRN. It originated from a desire to place processes and theories of environmental displacement in a broader context, thematically, empirically, and theoretically, in order to better understand these processes and add greater theoretical rigor to their study.

You will find attached both a description of the annotated bibliography, including its structure and our rationales for pursuing this project (pp. 1-2)
along with the annotated bibliography itself (pp. 3-24).

As this is a working document, we would like to extend an invitation to you to recommend articles that speak directly to nature-society relations and
international borders that could be included in this review. Specifically, there is a gap concerning literature coming from the Global South. As such, we strongly welcome any suggestions of literature by scholars outside of Europe and North America. Please send all suggestions to Francis Massé at massef@yorku.ca by August 15, 2013.

We look forward to providing both the complete annotated bibliography and literature review to the RRN once they are complete. We hope this project proves useful to RRN members, particularly in extending our understanding of processes and theories of environmental displacement.

Our warmest wishes to all members of the RRN.

Sincerely,
Elizabeth Lunstrum (Assistant Professor, Geography Dept., York University), and
Francis Massé (MA student, Geography Dept., York University)
